Would you guys think its worth adding a front bar to a stock setup? Im running 245/285 right now, I plan on going with a bigger tire up front in the future.

Yes. The bigger the better up front and just leave the rear bar stock.

There is a progressive and an eibach front available locally. The progressive is alittle stiffer but only one adjustment compared to eibach. What do you guys think should i go for one of those or just get a hotchkis? My car is strictly a street car btw

Street driving only? The least expensive one will probably work best for you.

street car would not need a super stiff setup. 30-35% stiffer than stock is plenty, and can run stock endlinks.

Eibachs are huge.I just did eibachs front and rear with spl/ whiteline links lowered on teins. Shop had the front stiffest and rear in the middle and took the front to soft because it wanted to oversteer a lot. The car feels beyond awesome, predictable all the time and I really dont think ill go stiffer front unless its for a specific track. For street use id still say get them youll love them.

Does or has anyone on the forum use a Progress front anti sway bar. How does it compare with Hotchkis for spirited street use and perhaps an occasional auto X? I have OEM Nismo struts and springs on my 2010 roadster.

Progress bar is tubular 35mm, Hotckis bar is tubular 35mm. Chances are they feel completely different from each other.

Update:
I had the sway bar installed which is Hotchkis (front only) and the impact/feeling was immediately, I felt the car became more firm, responsive, with better control when turning. Amazing!! Luckily I had track day after couple of days of the installation, the experience on track was totally improved and way way better than before.

I didnt install the endlinks yet, because the stock ones were still very good. I highly recommend to get swaybar from Hotchkis. In fact, it should be the first upgrade on suspension, even before the coil overs.

Z1 just released their own sway bars and links! 35mm front, 28.5mm rear

That's equal to a Hotchkiss setup but $12 cheaper. Who's trying them first?

Just saw those and the front is adjustable too so that’s a bonus.

This isn't always true but usually Z1's parts are very questionable quality. If it's comparable to something that's known better, get that instead, always.
